The Pospeshil Theatre in Bloomfield, Nebraska was built in 1906. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988, and was delisted in 2019. [1]
It was a two-part commercial block building that was located at the northwest corner of Grant St. and S. Broadway. The building was 114 by 50 feet (35 m × 15 m) in plan. It was "utilitarian in appearance" except for having "red brick arches over its windows and red brick ridges along the top of the building." [2]
The building was deemed significant in the area of social history and performing arts history of Nebraska. [2]
It was identified as one of 25 Nebraska historic opera house buildings worthy of intensive study in a 1988 review. [3]
The building burned down; Bloomfield's public library was built in 2000 on the former site. [4]
